Abstract
Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is the third leading cause of acute kidney injury deriving from the intravascular administration of contrast media in diagnostic and therapeutic procedures and leading to longer in-hospital stay and increased short and long-term mortality. Its pathophysiology, although not well-established, revolves around medullary hypoxia paired with the direct toxicity of the substance to the kidney. Critically ill patients, as well as those with pre-existing renal disease and cardiovascular comorbidities, are more susceptible to CI-AKI. Despite the continuous research in the field of CI-AKI prevention, clinical practice is based mostly on periprocedural hydration. In this review, all the investigated methods of prevention are presented, with an emphasis on the latest evidence regarding the potential of RenalGuard and contrast removal systems for CI-AKI prevention in high-risk individuals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Development of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is associated with increased morbidity, mortality, hospital length of stay, and overall health care costs. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this project was to evaluate a clinical practice change-the addition of high-dose statin therapy to standard renal protection measures-in adults undergoing acute cardiac catheterization procedures and assessing its effect on CI-AKI. METHOD The evaluation was a pretest/posttest descriptive design. Adult patients undergoing acute cardiac catheterization procedures were evaluated for the rate of CI-AKI before (10 months preimplementation, N = 283) and after (10 months postimplementation, N = 286) a recent practice change that added high-dose statin therapy (within 24 hours of dye exposure) to a standard renal protection bundle (intravenous fluids, maximum dye calculations, and avoidance of nephrotoxic medications). Outcomes included the rate of CI-AKI, stage of acute kidney injury, need for new hemodialysis, discharge disposition (alive or died in the hospital), and hospital length of stay. RESULTS Patients in the postintervention group that received renal protection bundle with high-dose statin had significantly lower incidence of CI-AKI (10.1% pre vs 3.2% post; P < .001). There were no significant differences in hospital length of stay, need for new hemodialysis, or mortality. Administration of high-dose statin within 24 hours of the cardiac catheterization procedure improved significantly (19.4% pre vs 74.1% post; P < .001). Adherence to all 5 components of the renal bundle improved post intervention (17% pre vs 73.4% post; P < .001). DISCUSSION The addition of a high-dose statin in addition to existing renal protective measures in patients with acute cardiac procedures is associated with a decreased incidence of CI-AKI.

Abstract
The complexity and application range of interventional and diagnostic procedures using contrast media (CM) have recently increased. This allows more patients to undergo procedures that involve CM administration. However, the intrinsic CM toxicity leads to the risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI). At present, effective therapy of CI-AKI is rather limited. Effective prevention of CI-AKI therefore becomes crucially important. This review presents an in-depth discussion of CI-AKI incidence, pathogenesis, risk prediction, current preventive strategies, and novel treatment possibilities. The review also discusses the difference between CI-AKI incidence following intraarterial and intravenous CM administration. Factors contributing to the development of CI-AKI are considered in conjunction with the mechanism of acute kidney damage. The need for ultimate risk estimation and the prediction of CI-AKI is stressed. Possibilities of CI-AKI prevention is evaluated within the spectrum of existing preventive measures aimed at reducing kidney injury. In particular, the review discusses intravenous hydration regimes and pre-treatment with statins and N-acetylcysteine. The review further focuses on emerging alternative imaging technologies, alternative intravascular diagnostic and interventional procedures, and new methods for intravenous hydration guidance; it discusses the applicability of those techniques in complex procedures and their feasibility in current practise. We put emphasis on contemporary interventional cardiology imaging methods, with a brief discussion of CI-AKI in non-vascular and non-cardiologic imaging and interventional studies.

Comparative analysis of four established risk scores for predicting contrast induced acute kidney injury after primary percutaneous coronary interventions. IJC HEART & VASCULATURE 2021; 37:100905. [PMID: 34765719 PMCID: PMC8569474 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcha.2021.100905] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2021] [Revised: 10/20/2021] [Accepted: 10/22/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Objectives This study aimed to compare Mehran Risk Score (MRS) with three well -known scoring systems namely CHA2DS2-VASc score, Canada Acute Coronary Syndrome Risk Score (C-ACS), and Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction risk index (TRI) to predict the contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Background CI-AKI is a common complication after primary PCI associated with an adverse prognosis. Methods In this study consecutive patients of primary PCI were included. Patients with chronic kidney diseases, exposure to the contrast medium within the past 7 days, and Killip class IV at presentation were excluded. MRS along with three risk scores namely CHA2DS2-VASc, C-ACS, and TRI were calculated for all patients and CI-AKI was defined as either 0.5 mg/dL or 25% relative increase in post-procedure serum creatinine. The area under the curve (AUC) curve was reported. Results Post primary PCI CI-AKI was observed in 63 (9.1%) patients out of 691 patients. The AUC was 0.745 [0.679-0.810] for MRS, 0.725 [0.662-0.788] for CHA2DS2-VASc, 0.671 [0.593-0.749] for C-ACS, and 0.734 [0.674-0.795] for TRI. Sensitivity and specificity were 61.9% [48.8-73.8%] and 76.0% [72.4-79.3%] for MRS ≥ 6.5, 66.7% [53.7-78.0%] and 66.7% [62.9-70.4%] for CHA2DS2-VASc ≥ 2, 52.4% [39.4-65.1%] and 79.9% [76.6-83.0%] for C-ACS ≥ 1, and 87.3% [76.5-94.4%] and 49.2% [45.2-53.2%] for TRI ≥ 16 respectively. Conclusions The MRS has shown higher discriminating power than CHA2DS2-VASc, C-ACS, and TRI. However, the TRI can be of good value in clinical practice due to its simplicity and high sensitivity in detecting patients at higher risk of CI-AKI after primary PCI.

Abstract
Although previous studies have indicated that statin therapy can effectively prevent the development of CIN, this observation remains controversial, especially in high-risk patients. A meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the efficacy of statin pretreatment for preventing the development of CIN in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and to determine its effectiveness in various subgroups. We searched the online databases PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library. RCTs that involved the comparison of the short-term moderate or high-dose statin pretreatment with placebo for CIN prevention in CKD patients undergoing angiography were included. The primary outcome was CIN prevalence. Seven RCTs comprising 4256 participants were investigated in this analysis. The risk of developing CIN in patients pretreated with statins was significantly lower than that in patients pretreated with placebo (RR=0.57, 95%CI=0.43-0.76, p=0.000). The SCr values of the statin group, when analyzed 48h after angiography were lower than those of the placebo group ((SMD=-0.15, 95% CI=-0.27 to -0.04, p=0.011). In the subgroup analysis, statin pretreatment could decrease the risk of CIN in CKD patients with DM (RR=0.54, 95% CI=0.39-0.76, p=0.000), but not in CKD patients without DM (RR=0.84, 95% CI=0.44-1.60, p=0.606). The efficacy of atorvastatin for preventing CIN was consistent with that observed with the use of rosuvastatin. The risk ratios (RR) were 0.51 (95% CI=0.32-0.81, p=0.004) and 0.60 (95% CI=0.41-0.88, p=0.009), respectively. Our study demonstrated that statin pretreatment could prevent the development of CIN in CKD patients. However, subgroup analysis demonstrated that statin pretreatment, despite being effective in preventing CIN in patients with CKD and DM, was not helpful for CKD patients without DM. Rosuvastatin and atorvastatin exhibited similar preventive effects with respect to CIN.

Abstract
Different pharmacologic agents have been tested in the effort to prevent contrast-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) in the last two decades. To date, however, no individual drug has received unanimous approval for this aim. Since 2014 statins have been included as preventive treatment in the European guidelines for revascularization procedures in cardiac patients. The present update presents the latest findings in this field focusing on the changing paradigms in the definition and consequently the approach to nephroprotection that considers clinical prognosis as the major issue. We note the current shift from attention to contrast-induced AKI to contrast-associated AKI.

Prevalence and Predictors of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy (CIN) in Patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI): A Meta-Analysis. J Interv Cardiol 2019; 2019:2750173. [PMID: 31772520 PMCID: PMC6854223 DOI: 10.1155/2019/2750173] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2019] [Revised: 06/10/2019] [Accepted: 08/05/2019] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) becomes more and more frequent after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). There have been no reported meta-analyses to determine the role of these risk factors in predicting CIN in patients with STEMI undergoing PCI. So we made this meta-analysis to summarize the incidence of CIN in patients with STEMI undergoing PCI and to study associations between CIN and several risk factors that are mentioned in most prevention guidelines. Hypothesis The overall incidence of CIN in patients with STEMI undergoing PCI is not low. Many risk factors could influence the occurrence of CIN, such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus (DM), and lower estimated glomerular filtration rate. Methods Databases, including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Chinese BioMedical (CBM), were searched for articles published before May 21, 2019, to identify all relevant studies on CIN. The pooled data were analyzed using either fixed-effects or random-effects models depending on heterogeneity (assessed via the I 2 index). Results Twelve articles encompassing a total of 6342 patients were included. The overall pooled CIN incidence was 13.3% (95% CI: 10.4-17.1). The forest plots showed positive associations between CIN and the presence of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, history of prior myocardial infarction, age, damaged left anterior descending artery, Killip class ≥2, decreased left ventricular ejection fraction, lower estimated glomerular filtration rate, and left ventricular ejection fraction <40%; the odds ratios for these factors were 1.85 (95% CI: 1.57-2.18; p < 0.00001), 1.83 (95% CI: 1.47-2.29; p < 0.00001), 2.14 (95% CI: 1.46-3.14; p < 0.0001), 7.79 (95% CI: 5.24-10.34; p < 0.00001), 1.92 (95% CI: 1.15-3.22; p=0.01), 3.12 (95% CI: 2.21-4.40; p < 0.00001), -6.15 (95% CI: -9.52 to -2.79; p=0.0003), -15.06 (95% CI: -24.75 to -5.36; p=0.002), and 5.53 (95% CI: 1.10-27.95; p=0.04), respectively. Conclusion The overall incidence of CIN in patients with STEMI undergoing PCI was not low and was closely associated with hypertension, diabetes mellitus, history of prior myocardial infarction, age, damaged left anterior descending artery, Killip class ≥2, decreased left ventricular ejection fraction, lower estimated glomerular filtration rate, and left ventricular ejection fraction <40%.

Abstract
Contrast nephropathy (CN) is acute kidney injury (AKI) that occurs within 24 to 72 hours of iodinated contrast medium (ICM) administration. Mechanisms of CN include hyperviscosity, free radical formation, and renal medullary oxygen supply/demand mismatch. Although risk factors for CN have been identified, it remains uncertain whether ICM causes or is simply associated with AKI. The cornerstones of CN prevention are using low-osmolal ICM, intravenous hydration, and statins, especially in patients with chronic kidney disease. With appropriate CN risk mitigation, coronary angiography and intervention should not be routinely withheld from patients with acute coronary syndromes.

Abstract
Effects of rosuvastatin on vascular endothelial functions and inflammatory factors of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and coronary heart disease were investigated. Eighty patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and coronary heart disease, who were admitted and treated in Center hospital of Zibo from January 2016 to January 2017, were selected and divided into observation group (n=40) and control group (n=40) by the random number table; symptomatic and supporting therapy, including use of metformin, captopril, asprin and levocarnitine, was used in control group while rosuvastatin was adopted in observation group in addition to the symptomatic and supporting therapy. Patients in both groups were treated for a treatment cycle, namely, 3 consecutive months. After that, indexes related to blood lipid, diabetes mellitus and vascular endothelial activity, as well as variations in inflammation-associated cytokines, before and after intervention were compared; the correlation of changes in total cholesterol (TC) with those in fasting insulin (FINS), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and endothelin-1 (ET-1), respectively, was analyzed. Among the blood lipid indexes of the patients, the levels of TC, triglyceride (TG) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) after intervention were significantly lower than those before intervention (P<0.05), while the post-intervention level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) was higher than that before intervention (P<0.05). Compared with those before intervention, the level of FINS after intervention was remarkably higher (P<0.05), while the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) level after intervention was significantly lower (P<0.05). After intervention, the levels of hs-CRP and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in the patients were obviously decreased compared with those before intervention (P<0.05). Compared with that before intervention, the ET-1 level was decreased (P<0.05), while the nitric oxide (NO) level was elevated after intervention (P<0.05). The TC level was negatively correlated with FINS level (P<0.05) but positively correlated with the levels of hs-CRP (P<0.05) and ET-1 (P<0.05). For patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and coronary heart disease, treatment with rosuvastatin can effectively lower the level of blood lipid and regulate insulin functions; moreover, potent decrease in blood lipid level has great significance in improving the vascular endothelial functions and reducing inflammatory response levels.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The Contrast Media Safety Committee (CMSC) of the European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) has updated its 2011 guidelines on the prevention of post-contrast acute kidney injury (PC-AKI). The results of the literature review and the recommendations based on it, which were used to prepare the new guidelines, are presented in two papers. AREAS COVERED IN PART 2: Topics reviewed include stratification of PC-AKI risk, the need to withdraw nephrotoxic medication, PC-AKI prophylaxis with hydration or drugs, the use of metformin in diabetic patients receiving contrast medium and the need to alter dialysis schedules in patients receiving contrast medium. KEY POINTS • In CKD, hydration reduces the PC-AKI risk • Intravenous normal saline and intravenous sodium bicarbonate provide equally effective prophylaxis • No drugs have been consistently shown to reduce the risk of PC-AKI • Stop metformin from the time of contrast medium administration if eGFR < 30 ml/min/1.73 m 2 • Dialysis schedules need not change when intravascular contrast medium is given.

Abstract
Statins have been used to prevent contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). However, the optimal dose of statins is still under controversy. This study aimed to investigate the optimal dose of atorvastatin for the treatment of CIN after carotid artery stenting (CAS). Seventy-six patients receiving selective CAS were randomized to receive 3 different dose of atorvastatin (low dose, 20 mg, n = 30; intermediate dose, 40 mg, n = 24; high dose, 60 mg, n = 22). Preoperatively and on day 3 postoperatively, the levels of serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and creatine kinase (CK) were measured. Creatinine clearance (Ccr) and CIN incidence were calculated. In patients treated with high-dose atorvastatin, no significant change was observed in levels of serum creatinine (Scr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine clearance, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein after the CAS procedure (P > 0.05). The CIN incidence in the high-dose group (0%) was significantly lower than the low-dose (13.3%) and intermediate (8.3%) groups (P < 0.05). In the high-dose group, levels of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, and creatine kinase were significantly increased after CAS (P < 0.05). Pretreatment with 40 mg of atorvastatin is both effective and safe in preventing CIN after CAS. Adverse events of the live and heart should be closely monitored during atorvastatin treatment.

Abstract
Background The prevention of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) by statins remains controversial. Therefore, the present meta-analysis including randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was performed to assess the effect of perioperative statin on CSA-AKI. Methods Two reviewers independently searched for RCTs about perioperative statin for prevention of CSA-AKI. The primary endpoint was CSA-AKI. Relative risk was calculated between statin and placebo for preventing CSA-AKI using the random-effect model or fixed-effect model according to different heterogeneity. Results Eight RCTs met inclusion criteria, including five studies with atorvastatin, two with rosuvastatin, and one with simvastatin. There were 1,603 patients receiving statin treatment and 1,601 with placebo. Perioperative statin therapy did not reduce the incidence of CSA-AKI (relative risk =1.17, 95% CI: 0.98–1.39, p=0.076). Furthermore, perioperative statin increased the risk of CSA-AKI in the subgroup analysis with clear definition of CSA-AKI and those with JADAD score >3. Perioperative rosuvastatin produced slightly significantly higher risk of AKI than atorvastatin therapy (p=0.070). Statin intervention both pre and post surgery slightly increased the risk of CSA-AKI versus preoperative statin therapy alone (p=0.040). Conclusions Perioperative statin therapy might increase the risk of CSA-AKI after cardiac surgery.

Abstract
In patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention, contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a serious complication associated with poor outcomes. We assessed the predictive value of the Canada Acute Coronary Syndrome (C-ACS) score for CIN in these patients. A total of 394 consecutive patients with STEMI were enrolled and divided into 3 groups according to their C-ACS scores—group 1, score 0; group 2, score 1; and group 3, score ≥2. The clinical outcomes were CIN and major adverse clinical events (MACEs) during hospital and follow-up; 8.4% of patients developed CIN. Patients with high C-ACS scores were more likely to develop CIN, in-hospital death, and MACEs ( P < .001). The C-ACS score was an independent predictor of CIN (odds ratio = 2.87; 95% confidence interval = 1.78-4.63; P < .001) and risk factor for long-term MACEs. The C-ACS score had good predictive values for CIN, in-hospital morality, MACEs, and long-term mortality. Patients with high C-ACS risk scores exhibited a worse survival rate than those with low scores (death, P = .02; MACEs, P = .006). In conclusion, in patients with STEMI, the C-ACS could predict CIN and clinical outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The results of previous studies have been contradictory in terms of the efficacy of statin treatment in preventing contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) and clinical adverse events (AEs). OBJECTIVE This meta-analysis was undertaken to assess the role of short-term statin treatment in the prevention of CI-AKI and clinical AEs. METHODS We searched the Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and PubMed databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with the development of CI-AKI as a primary outcome. Secondary outcomes were the post-procedural serum creatinine (SCr) level, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and development of AEs. We also performed prespecified subgroup analyses. RESULTS A total of 21 RCTs involving 7746 patients were included. Short-term statin treatment significantly reduced the risk of CI-AKI [risk ratio (RR) 0.57; 95 % confident interval (CI) 0.47-0.69; p < 0.00001) and was associated with a lower post-procedural SCr level and a higher eGFR. High-dose statins resulted in a lower incidence of CI-AKI than the lower-dose statins. In addition, the benefit was seen across various subgroups for patients at risk of CI-AKI, statin-naïve patients, and East Asians, regardless of statin type, definition of CI-AKI, use of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and hydration, and osmolality of contrast. However, there was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of the incidence of AEs. CONCLUSIONS The meta-analysis suggests that short-term statin treatment can effectively prevent CI-AKI, and the benefit is also observed in high-risk patients, statin-naïve patients, and an East Asian population. However, the effect of simvastatin for the prevention of CI-AKI, of statins for the prevention of AEs, and whether high-dose statins have a better effect than lower-dose statins are all still uncertain.

Comparison of the efficacy of rosuvastatin versus atorvastatin in preventing contrast induced nephropathy in patient with chronic kidney disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. PLoS One 2014; 9:e111124. [PMID: 25357250 PMCID: PMC4214705 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0111124] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2014] [Accepted: 09/19/2014] [Indexed: 01/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Objectives We prospectively compared the preventive effects of rosuvastatin and atorvastatin on contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods We enrolled 1078 consecutive patients with CKD undergoing elective PCI. Patients in Group 1 (n = 273) received rosuvastatin (10 mg), and those in group 2 (n = 805) received atorvastatin (20 mg). The primary end-point was the development of CIN, defined as an absolute increase in serum creatinine ≥0.5 mg/dL, or an increase ≥25% from baseline within 48–72 h after contrast medium exposure. Results CIN was observed in 58 (5.4%) patients. The incidence of CIN was similar in patients pretreated with either rosuvastatin or atorvastatin (5.9% vs. 5.2%, p = 0.684). The same results were also observed when using other definitions of CIN. Clinical and procedural characteristics did not show significant differences between the two groups (p>0.05). Additionally, there were no significant inter-group differences with respect to in-hospital mortality rates (0.4% vs. 1.5%, p = 0.141), or other in-hospital complications. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that rosuvastatin and atorvastatin demonstrated similar efficacies for preventing CIN, after adjusting for potential confounding risk factors (odds ratio = 1.17, 95% confidence interval, 0.62–2.20, p = 0.623). A Kaplan–Meier survival analysis showed that patients taking either rosuvastatin or atorvastatin had similar incidences of all-cause mortality (9.4% vs. 7.1%, respectively; p = 0.290) and major adverse cardiovascular events (29.32% vs. 23.14%, respectively; p = 0.135) during follow-up. Conclusions Rosuvastatin and atorvastatin have similar efficacies for preventing CIN in patients with CKD undergoing PCI.
